"The primary functions of chromatin are to package DNA into a smaller volume to fit in the cell, to strengthen the DNA to allow mitosis and meiosis and prevent DNA damage, and to control gene expression and DNA replication."
I would just go with the first one, to package the DNA into a smaller volume.

∙ 13y agochromatin is, essentially, the DNA and proteins that are "packed together" inside of chromosomes and form the genetic material inside of em.
^^ Hope this helped! :D
And the chromatin is important for fitting the DNA into the nucleus.

Threadlike coils of chromosomes?
Chromatin-- =]
What is the description of a chromatin fiber?
A chromatin fiber is the point at which DNA in chromatin is higher then the nucleosome. Chromatin fibers occur when the linear array of the nucleosome fold into a tighter fiber.
What is the function of the chromatin inside the nucleus?
The chromatin constitutes genes
Is chromatin fibers and chromatin reticulum has same meaning?
Yes they are same.
Is RNA found with chromatin?
Yes rna found with chromatin, chromatin is made up of 5% rna, 45% dna and remaining with the proteins.
What structure is composed of DNA and protein?
chromatin / chromosones!
What does Chromatin condense of?
Chromatin can't "condense of" anything, chromatin can condense into Chromosomes.
Do animals have chromatin?
Yes, they do have chromatin.
What you a chromatin?
I'm not a chromatin, but chromatin is the long strands of genetic material floating in the nucleus

When the DNA in a cell is uncoiled and spread throughout the nucleus it is called?
The most tightly-coiled form of DNA is a chromosome.
DNA that is spread out in a non dividing cell is called?
Chromatin Chromatin
Are chromatin prokaryote or eukaryote?
Chromatin are in eukariyotes.They are not in prokariyotes.

What does the chromatin do for the cell?
Chromatin is a mass of DNA located in the nucleus.
What is the relation to DNA and chromatin?
